Sailing  over  the  broud.  clear  waters  of  Lake  '  Superior,  trullinir 
fur  the  U\r<re  20  pound  hike  trout,  beating  the  niuuntain  streams  for 
speckled  trout,  visiting  the  rulling  mill,  lurnaces,  mines  and  other 
objects  of  interest  will  serve  to  pass  away  several  weeks  if.  an 
anuising  and  i)rotitable  manner.  The  hotels  here  are  well  kept, 
vc:y  comfortable  and  charges  reasonable,  and  amongst  other  at- 
tractive features  we  call  attention  to  the  following  sketch,  frc  n>  the 
Jfhiimj  Jounml,  of  the  new  jfark  and  cemetery: 

'•The  people  of  Manpictte  are  remarkal)lj  well  favored  with  the 
grand  in  nature— in  the  hills  and  valleys,  the  swift  flowing  river 
and  the  rivulet,  the  exi)anse  of  lake  and  stretch  of  shore  line,  the 
rising  i>lain  and  unnumbered  tints  of  loliage,  by  which  the  city  is 
surrcmnded.  It  would  be  difficult  to  select  a  point  which  (»tfers  a 
greater  <livcrsity  of  striking  and  beautiful  scenery,  in  the  midst  of 
a  moving  c(»mnierce  which  is  asserting  itself  as  the  most  jKnverful 
in  the  world,  A  finer  ])icture  never  covered  the  canvas  of  an  artist 
than  is  presented  by  Manpiette  from  the  center  ot  the  bay,  with 
tlie  docks,  and  ships  and  steamers  in  the  foreground,  bustling  with 
life,  and  the  city  dropping  from  the  highland  to  the  right  and  left  on 
both  cides  of  the  bay,  with  a  horizon  of  hills  to  the  extreme  right 
and  lett  and  in  the  back  ground.  As  a  vessel  advances  toward  this 
scene  an  irresistible  emotion,  influenced  by  beauty,  creeps  over  the 
soul  of  the  beholder,  and  as  the  heart  dilates  with  (piickened  i.nlsa- 
tion  he  feels  that  words  are  useless— the  vision  is  sufficient."

Alli.'^On  the  Beach  at  Long  Bram^h. 

On  the  beach  at  Marquette,  in  the  summer  sun, 
llural  charms  aie  waiting  visitors  who  come 
Seeking  healthy  pleasure,  roaming  on  the  sand, 
Merry  waves  resounding  up  and  down  the  strand. 
Boats  on  wings  are  sailing  'round  about  the  bay, 
Skift*s  are  gaily  gliding,  on  a  pleasant  day, 
Indians  often  paddling  in  their  bark  canoe, 
Romance  with  rosy  fingers  paints  the  charming  view.  ; 

Air,  with  balmy  pinions,  wafts  from  yonder  shore; 
Breezes  from  the  wild  woods  sipped  from  many  a  flower; 
Dashing  little  streamlets  where  the  waters  shout, 
Down  beneath  the  shadows  sport  the  speckled  trout; 
SailiniT  o'er  the  waters  in  a  trallant  Ooat, 
Salmon  trout  by  dozens  catching  as  you  float; 
Hocks,  with  marks  of  ages  painted  on  their  face- 
Nature's  honored  sages— loom  with  stately  grace. 

ChoniH. 

We've  five  hotels  and  good  ones,  sparkling,  bracing,  air. 
Churches  seven,  and  neat  ones,  for  those  who  enter  there; 
By  the  shore  at  Manpiette,  ])leasant  place  to  stay, 
Since  the  season  opened  in  the  "Charming  May." 

Where  can  often  be  seen  ton  u})on  ton  of  solid  wealth  ar- 
riving from  the  mines  above,  gliding  along  the  massive  piers, 
and  thundering  into  the  vessels  lying  below,  whose  snowy 
wings  spread  anon  o'er  the  cool  crystal  water— appearing  in 
the  distance  like  birds  of  the  ocean— propellers  and  steamers 
coming  and  going,  streets  thronged  with  smiling-faced  visitors, 
making  a  programme  of  interest  not  to  be  seen  everywhere; 
and  the  lovers  of  nature  who  now  suffer  from  the  heat  of  a 
southern  sun  cannot  fail  to  appreciate  the  many  exhilarating 
attractions  which  at  this  season  can  be  found  by  a  ramble 
"On  the   Beach  at  Manpiette,"  iVrc.

^    *Vv%\\OY'%   l^YCa^WV, 


In  my  dream  last  night,  I  saw  a  form 
Whose  face  was  dark  as  the  dusky  morn, 
Whose  symmetry  one  could  but  admire— 
'Twas  an  Indian  Chief  in  his  wild  attire. 

He  stood  on  a  hill  of  iron  ore, . 
And  silver  lead  as  a  badge  he  wore. 
In  his  right,  was  a  migget  ot  silver  white. 
In  his  left,  a  mass  of  copper  bright. 

Amethysts,  agates,  and  greenstones,  too, 
Shone  as  bright  as  the  sparkling  dew, 
While  curiosities  around  him  lay 
Bright  as  the  rainbow,  colors  as  gay. 

He  said  in  accents  broken,  low, 
"  Now,  nidjie,  if  you  wish  to  know 
Where   to  purchase  all   such  things  one 

needs. 
You'll  ever  find  them  by  calling  at  Meade."

The  lake,  as  a  wide-spreading  mirror. 

Lay  in  its  frame  of  briglit  green, 
Sleeping  one  evening  at  sun-set, 

Tinged  with  the  sky's  azure  sheen. 
Air,  seemed  the  breath  of  the  zephyr 

Balmily  floating  along. 
Dancing  on  emerald  pine  tops, 

Merrily  humming  a  song. 

Sky.  was  a  brilliant  blue  color. 

Tinged  with  a  coating  of  green;  • 

Clouds,  just  dipped  in  the  rainbow 

Never  more  gorgeous  were  seen. 
'Twas  as  tho'  millions  of  roses 

Scattered  their  petals  to  dry 
In  the  pink  glow  of  the  sunsliine, 

Over  the  beautiful  sky. 

Yonder,  were  rich  auburn  tresses, 

Nestling  o'er  flgures  of  gold. 
While  Flora,  with  crimson-tipped  bluslies. 

Scattered  her  treasures  untold. 
Here,  a  huge  fiery-like  pillar 

Brilliantly  towered  on  high. 
Looking  as  tho'  a  volcano 

Had  suddenly  leaped  in  the  sky. 


Tliere,  seemeil  an  emerald  mountain, 

Covered  with  silvery  sheep; 
Down  at  the  base  was  a  fountain — 

Caverns  looked  rugged  and  steep. 
Scenery  celestial — that  sun-set — 

Plainlv  portraved  on  the  skv. 
The  work  of  the  good,  supreme  artist, 

Doth  the  most  skillful  defy. 

Perhaps,  'twas  a  gleam  of  the  riches 

Down  in  the  depths  of  the  lake, 
Reflected  on  the  bright  sun-l>eams; 

What  a  grand  painting  'twould  make! 
Such  a  magnificent  picture 

Could  any  artist  but  paint; 
Bright,  in  the  record  of  ages 

He'd  shine—  almost  as  a  saint. 

Italy  boasts  of  its  sun-sets, 

Heavenly  paintings  in  air; 
Never  yet,  in  any  country, 

Ever  were  colors  more  rare. 
The  author  of  all,  in  His  goodness, 

Who  formed  the  earth  so  fair — 
Could  we  discern  it,  dispenseth 

Tilings  beautiful  everywhere.

IROQUOIS  AND  CHIPPEWAS. 


HISTORICAL  FACTS.— BYT.  M. 


■iH 


Once  powerful  nation,  Chippewa, 

Tradition  tells,  in  ancient  day 

Desceniled  from  this  grand  old  lake, 

Subduing  foes  each  step  they'd  take. 

Unversed  were  they  in  many  a  vice 

When./?re  tcater,  thought  so  nice 

By  some,  had  never  reached  these  ehores ; 

(Which  many  a  native  most  adores,) 

When  each  a  nol>le  heritage 

Preserved  in  form  and  lineage, 

And  blessed  their  tribe  with  valorous  deeds. 

When  hunters  brought  their  daily  needs, 

When  tawny  beauties— famed  in  song— 

Oft  roamed  the  mossy  dells  among, 

And  borrowed  radiance  from  wild  flowers, 

And  pure  as  winds  that  breathe  cool  showers. 

From  Fond  du  Lac,  down  to  La  Pointe 

And  Keweenaw,  their  foes  disjoint. 

As  sweeping  wind.'*,  on,  on  they  came, 

Or  rushing  streams,  when  fioods  of  rain, 

Or  me'itiug  snow-drifts  in  the  spring 

Have  raised  them  high— swept  everything. 

The  proud  and  war  like  Iroquois 

Recoil  before  them  like  mere  boys  ; 

As  puppets  made  of  paint  and  wood 

In  grand  array,  'twas  thus  they  stood. 

Huge  war  clubs,  bows  and  arrows,  stealth 

And  tomahawks,  soon  sjtoilt  their  health. 

A  youthful  squaw  while  berrying 

Beheld  a  fleet  fast  hurryiug 

To  reach  the  Portage  entry — 

She  knew  it  was  the  enemy— 

As  timid  fawn  away  she  flew. 

And  leaping  in  her  light  canoe, 

Sped  swiftly  o'er  tlie  little  lake. 

To  friends  the  fearful  news  to  take. 

Commotion  reigned  supreme  in  camp. 

A  couucil  held,  the  sudden  tramp 

Of  hundreds  on  the  sod  was  heard, 

And  shouts  that  scared  both  deer  and  bird. 

Stern  vengeance  eat  upon  each  brow, 

As  down  the  stream  they  da.sh,  they  vow 

Each  tomahawk  shall  send  a  foe. 

Anon  to  realms  of  bliss  or  woe. 

But  wait,  the  foe  in  ambush  lies, 

(Full  certain  of  a  dead  surprise,) 

Down  where  the  river  narrows,  there 

They  crouch  as  beasts  within  their  lair. 

A  mighty  yell  on  either  side 

The  river  bursts,  as  down  they  glide. 

A  flight  of  arrows  bore  a  sting 

Of  death,  upon  each  quivering  wiiig. 

As  with  the  spider  and  the  fly, 

They're  in  the  snare,  and  all  must  die. 

A  net  was  set,  a  trap  was  laid. 

And  ere  the  night-hawk  soared,  'tis  said 

No  throbbing  heart,  or  active  brain 

E're  moved  those  warriors  red  again. 

The  Chippewaa  again  embark 


mm 


Upon  their  fleet  of  yellow  bark  ; 
Now  shouting  triumph  as  they  sped, 
Now  flaunting  high  the  scalps  of  dead 
Sons  of  the  woods,  who'll  ne'er  return 
To  wailing  squaws,  who'll  ceaseless  mourn. 
By  day  they  skim  the  shining  lake, 
At  night,  to  silent  woods  they  take  ; 
They  tish  and  hunt  to  gain  supplies 
From  Nature's  store,  that  near  them  lies. 
The  laugh  of  victors'  war-whoops  shrill, 
Soon  echo  loud  from  hill  to  hill  ; 
While  rumbling  beats  the  nation's  drum. 
They  eing  and  jump  to  turn  tum-tum, 
Which  terror  spreads  to  all  things  near, 
The  timorous  bird,  the  rambling  deer ; 
The  crouching  lynx,  the  clumsy  bear, 
Shy  foxes,  wolves,  creep  from  their  lair. 
Fine  stalwart  forms,  wiih  faces  red 
With  paint,  while  feathers  decked  each  head. 
And  claws  of  bruins  dangling  hung 
Around  the  necks  of  chieftiaus  young. 
A  tomahawk,  a  scalping  knife — 
That's  maybe  ended  many  a  life. 
While  bow  and  arrow,  war-club  bent, 
Made  up  their  wild  accoutrement. 
A  scalp  or  two  hung  by  the  side 
Of  some,  to  Ihem  the  height  of  pride. 
A  blazing  fire  the  night  illumes  ; 
The  calumet  with  curling  fumes 
Spreads  harmony  around  the  sceue; 
For  artists  'twas  a  splendid  theme. 
A  novel  sight  were  it  to-day, 
A  host  like  that  in  wild  array  ; 
Plumed,  painted,  tattoed— long  black  hair- 
Now  shouting  war  ciics  in  the  air, 
Some  dancing  to  the  god  of  wars, 
And  drumming  to  the  fiery  Mars ; 
Some  lishing,  hunting,  playing  ball. 
All  lounging  when  night's  shadow  falls. 
There's  Wa-gua-miu-na,  0-ta-dan — 
Young  braves  who  never  flinched  or  ran — 
Tall  Wa-ua-ta-gon,  Kin-ka-doo ; 
Each  crushing  blow  they  struck  they  slew. 
Still  on  they  go— sail,  paddle  and  row 
Towards  the  Sault,  that  lies  below  ; 
When  by  and-by,  ere  set  the  sun. 
They  reach  high  "Grosscap"  one  by  one. 
And  soon,  now  comes  the  "  tng  of  war," 
The  Iroquois'  stronghold  not  far 
Below  them  lies,  oft  vanquished  foes. 
Black  hate  hath  stirred  revengeful  throes. 
And  raised  to  gall  their  savage  ire, 
And  set  ablaze  their  native  fire. 
Ye  conquering  heroes,  Chippewas  ; 
Who,  by  the  force  of  nature's  laws. 
Decrees,  it  seems,  that  might  is  right, 
Have  now  no  abject  foes  to  fight; 
And  well  aware  of  such  stern  facts, 
The  medicine  man,  who  ever  acts

The  Iroquois  and  CuipptwAS. — Continued. 


wW' 


As  prophet,  and  who  Intercedes 

To  Maoltou  in  all  their  needs, 

Invokes  his  unknown  deity 

For  succor  in  Infinity. 

His  sacred  sanctum  sanctorum 

Receives  this  wise  old  sagje  ;  not  one 

Now  dares  approach  his  hallowed  form, 

E'en  iho'  he  pleads  from  night  till  morn. 

White  buckskin  pelts  spread  o'er  his  tent; 

In  humble  form,  with  figure  bent, 

He  prayed  as  one  in  wild  despair 

That  One  above  would  hear  his  prayer. 

He  asked,  as  thousands  often  do, 

The  power  to  make  his  foes  to  rue, 

And  wished  that  every  warrior  brave 

Might  slay  a  foe  his  friends  to  save  ; 

That  fleecy  clouds,  both  thick  and  white, 

Might  rise  to  hide  them  all  from  sight ; 

That  they,  unseen  by  vigil  eyep, 

Might  suddenly  their  foes  surprise. 

The  power  of  prayer's  exemplified. 

Unless  their  history  has  lied, 

For  on  the  tent's  rude  covering 

In  rapid  taps  began  to  ring 

Loud  raps  ;  as  swiftly,  too,  they  came 

As  pelting  hall  or  driven  rfin. 

And  each  sound  was,  the  spirit  said, 

A  foeman's  life,  a  spirit  fled. 

A  dense  fog-cloud  arose  that  night, 

That  veiled  the  moon  and  stars  so  bright. 

Then  rose  the  sage — a  ray  of  joy 

Shone  o'er  his  face  as  when  a  boy. 

He  beckoned  each  brave  to  his  side, 

And  bid  them  cheer  in  tones  of  pride. 

The  Maniton,  be  said,  had  told 

Him,  Iroquois— both  young  and  old — 

Should,  ere  returned  the  morning  light, 

Be  in  the  land  that  knows  no  night. 

AcrooS  upon  the  other  side, 

"Where  ebbs  and  flows  the  gentle  tide, 

A  powerful  host,  in  dread  array, 

Awaited  for  the  light  of  day. 

The  Chippewas,  more  wary,  bold, 

Beneath  the  shade  of  fog,  'tis  told, 

Soon  sailed  out  in  bark  canoes — 

Success  Is  theirs,  they  'vantage  chose. 

Then  some  above,  and  some  below, 

As  still  as  death  ashore  they  go 

Into  the  woods,  no  sound  or  noise 

Awakes  the  dreamy  Iroquois. 

As  snakes  upon  the  ground  they  sneak 

Or  tigers  crouching  for  a  leap, 

They  presently  again  unite 

Behind  their  foes,  caressed  by  night. 

O  brave,  unconscious  warriors 

Entranced  in  slumber,  many  years 

The  scouige  of  many  a  tawny  tribe. 

Who'd  oft  beseeching  looks  deride. 

No  more  your  conquering  ft  et  shall  tread. 

Wild,  painted  braves  among  the  dead  ; 

No  more  the  friendly  calumet 

You'll  need,  or  will  around  it  sit ! 

(The  night  was  hushed,  no  sound  was  heard, 

Not  e'en  the  leaflt-ts  soft  winds  stirred, 

Nor  playful  ripples  kissed  the  bhore. 

Serenely  rolling  o'er  and  o'er. ) 

Upon  their  sandy  beds  they  lay, 

A  little  host,  a  nation  they  ; 

The  boast,  the  picked  ones  of  their  tribe— 

Once  powerful  savage  people's  pride. 

On  them,  gray  twilight's  mantle  spread 

A  pall,  to  cover  o'er  the  dead. 


Before  them  lay  the  crystal  Inke, 
Behind  them  foes,  their  lives  to  take, 
bright  dew  drops  decked  half  covered  forms, 
A  robe  of  pelts  their  chief  adorns. 
With  beads  and  paint  they  look  so  wild. 
True  type  of  many  a  forest  child. 
Sleep,  calmly  sleep,  'I  will  be  your  lost ! 
Dream  fond  adieux,  your  day  's  most  past ! 
No  more  you'll  gladden  anxious  eyes 
With  game  or  scalps,  or  foes  surprise. 
A  spring!  a  bound  !  unearthly  yells 
As  if  from  Hades,  vengeance  tells  ! 
The  astonished  Iroquois  from  sleep 
Arose,  as  when  poor,  helpless  sheep 
Are  set  upon  by  wolves  ;  and  ere 
They'd  time  to  rally,  many  were 
Dispatched  to  happy  hunting  grounds, 
With  those  who're  buried  'neath  high  mounds. 
Ah,  then  ensued  a  fearful  strife— 
As  lions  struggling  life  for  life- 
Fierce  grappling,  rending,  crushing  blows. 
Now  dealing  death  strokes,  butchering  foee. 
The  work  was  short,  'twas  quickly  done— 
As  rose  again  the  golden  sun 
Behind  the  clouds  that  ope  the^day — 
Whose  rosy  fingers  paint  each  ray — 
A  sight  appalling  met  the  eye. 
Poor  Iroquois  in  death  all  lie 

Save  one,  deprived  of  ears  and  nose. 

Who  down  the  river  swiftly  goes 

To  bear  the  message  to  bis  friends, 

The  taunting  Chippewa  now  sends  ; 

"  When  m*n  you'd  fight  with,  such  as  we. 

Send  men  to  fight  ns  ;  never  be 

Such  fools  again  ;  good  sense  you  lack. 

To  send  out  women  on  our  track." 

They  spread  the  skulls  along  the  shore  ; 

'TIS  said  they  reached  a  mile  or  more. 

But  for  the  truth  of  this  I'll  not 

E'en  vouch,  tho'  olt  I've  seen  the  spot. 

But  bones  lies  scattered  here  and  there 

Along  the  beach  ;  the  very  air 

Seems  laden  with  the  walling  tone 

Of  dying  men  who  breathe  a  moan. 

Thus,  where  the  lighthouse  now  doth  stand. 

Beside  the  point  of  yellow  sand  ; 

Where  troubled  waves  with  swellmg  noise 

Oft  murmur,  stands  Point  Iroquoia. 

With  such  a  sweeping  victory, 

Now  all  elate  they  shout  with  glee. 

And  dashing  down  the  crystal  stream 

In  bark  canoes — as  If  by  steam — 

Soon  reached  the  spot  now  called  "the  Soo," 

And  put  to  fliifht  the  helpless  few. 

They  made  that  pleasant  place  their  home. 

And  from  their  stronghold  hunt  and  roam. 

And  even  to  the  present  day. 

Their  oflfsprlng  thither  love  to  stay. 

A  moral  in  my  narrative 

Appears  quite  plainly — while  we  live 

Let  caution,  and  sagacity. 

With  soul  determined,  ever  be 

Our  motto;  and  the  hands  should  strike 

The  golden  chances  met  through  life  ; 

And  then,  as  checkered  Fortune's  wheel 

Turns  on  Its  axip,  we  may  feel 

The  friendly  hand  of  good  success, 

Behold  her  smiling  face,  unless 
Life's  stormy,  ragintr  billows  rise 
To  sink  our  bark  before  it  lies 
Serenely  in  Hope's  sunnv  port. 

Behind  the  ramparts  of  her  fort. 
Tho'  fortune  pmiles  on  but  the  few, 

"Act  well  our  part,"  whate'er  we  do. 


THE  PIONEER  I  EXPLORER 

(SUPPOSED   TO   BE    HIS    FIRST   TRIP.) 


A  pioneer  with  axe  in  hand, 

A  blanket,  pick  and  gun, 
A  little  food,  to  search  the  land, 

Starts  with  the  rising  sun. 
Id  fancy's  dream,  before  him  lies 

A  mine  of  shining  gold, 
Of  silver,  copper,  iron— some  prize 

Producing  wealth  untold. 

When  evening  shadows  gather  'round, 

And  Flora  paints  the  west; 
When  spotted  fawns  a  place  have  found 

Beneath  some  bush  tu  rest ; 
When  gentle  winds  a  vesper  sigh, 

And  le:iflets  catch  the  tone ; 
When  swallows  swift  are  soaring  high 

And  wild  beasts  love  to  roam; 
Beside  some  green  and  shady  nook, 

Where  scarce  a  sound  is  heard, 
Save  music  of  a  babbling  brook 

Or  chirp  of  friendly  bird, 
A  dancing  fire  with  curling  flames. 

At  evening  might  be  seen  ; 
Sparks  soaring  through  the  waving  plumes 

Of  nature's  locks  so  green. 

A  bunch  of  boughs  spread  o'er  the  mould; 

His  bpacious  tent  the  skies, 
Beneath  some  tree,  though  nights  are  cold, 

Upon  the  brush  he  lies. 
He  quaffs  the  solace  of  his  pipe 

And  marks  the  smoke  arise, 
Till  poudering  o'er  hU  future  life, 

He  siiuts  his  weary  eyes. 
Though  slumber  hovers  o'er  him  now 

His  thoughts  cease  not  to  roam. 
As  balos  circling  'round  his  brow 

Arc  happy  dreams  of  home. 

A  stealthy  lynx  creeps  up  to  sec, 

A  wolf  is  prowling  there; 
A  bear  walks  up  and  steals,  may  be, 

Some  food  that's  lying  near. 
He  wakes  to  bear  the  black  thief  run. 

As  bushes  part  and  crack  ; 
Too  late  he  hastens  with  bis  gun 

To  bring  the  bruin  back. 
The  morn  arrives,  the  day  's  begun. 

He  takes  an  early  meal, 
And  gladdened  by  the  golden  sun 

His  thoughts  are  thoughts  of  weal. 
Each  rivulet  with  eagle  eye 

He  scans,  tho'  yet  in  vain. 
And  searches  every  blnCE  near  by — 

fie  looks  and  looks  again 
To  find  some  precious  treasure,  which 

For  ages  has  beeu  hid 
Beneath  the  soil,  to  make  him  rich, 

Will  fortune  now  forbid  ? 

Each  morning  comes,  each  evening  goes. 
Yet  naught  but  rocks  and  trees 

E'er  greet  his  eyes — as  fancy  fiows— 
No,  naught  of  worth  be  sees. 

Fond  Hope  soon  leaves  him  there,  alone. 


Success,  too,  droops  its  head  ; 
His  food,  too,  now  is  almost  gone; 

Hark  !  what  was  that  be  said  ? 
"  My  comp.'^ss  gone,  I've  lost  my  way  ! 

My  feet,  alas  !  how  sore  ! 
i  bitterly  regret  the  day 

I  left  my  cottage  door." 

With  drooping  head  and  weaiy  limbs 

He  sits  him  down  to  rest. 
While  hunger  chides  as  evening  flings 

Its  shadows  o'er  the  west. 
No  compass  now — no  sun  to  ehiue, 

Nor  moss  about  the  trees  ; 
The  hours  pass  on,  he  heeds  no  time, 

'lis  naught  but  woe  he  sees. 

He  wanders  on  but  knows  not  where, 

His  brain  begins  to  swim, 
And  feelings,  touched  with  dark  despair 

Soon  close  his  eyes,  grown  dim. 
He  dreams  of  home,  the  tender  child. 

And  sees  it  smile  and  play, 
When  darkness  stays  its  rompings  wild 

He  hears  it  sweetly  pray. 
He  marks  the  sad  look  of  his  wife. 

Beholds  her  on  her  knees 
Imploring  One  to  spare  his  life — 

Brave  thoughts  bis  feelings  seize. 
As  when  a  sleeping  giant  hears 

The  sound  of  foeman's  tread. 
So  he  arose  and  left  his  fears 

AH  on  his  leafy  bed. 

Cheered  on  by  thrifty  energy, 
While  gaining  strength  anew, 

Sound  reason  gave  him  back  the  key 
To  search  the  forest  through. 

See  !  yonder  comes,  with  gentle  gait, 

A  "Monarch  of  the  Glen  ; " 
And  now  'b  the  lime  ;  if  he'll  but  wait 

A  moment  more,  and  then— 
(An  echo  wakes  each  slumbering  bill. 

As  when  in  battle  plain 
A  lonely  picket  in  some  rill 

Is  by  a  foeman  slain,) 
He  aims,  though  trembling  sore,  and  fires, 

A  leap  into  the  air  ! 
And  presently  a  deer  expires; 

His  food,  bis  life  is  there ! 
Encouraged  now  by  good  success,      *   *  •* 

The  sun,  too,  shming  bright,  '*,' 

He  hastes  to  leave  the  wilderness,    „    ,  , 

And  sets  his  course  aright.  \

THE   PIONEER   AND    EXPLORER— Continued. 


For  samples  of  the  ore  ; 
At  times  A  wild,  triumphant  about 

R\Bf^B  out  the  forest  o'er ; 
Then  Alls  his  sack,  and  blazes  back 

A  line,  as  on  he  goes, 
That  ho  may  soon  retrace  his  track — 

His  heart  with  raptnre  glows! 

As  when  a  f!;allant  soldier  leaves 

The  battle  field  behind. 
When  foes  are  as  the  fallen  leaves. 

He  hastens  home  to  And 
Rejoicing  friends,  glad  welcoming 

Their  hero  home  again  ; 
So  he  returned,  now  triumphing 

O'er  hardships  fraught  with  pain. 
A  meeting — well,  the  dews  of  heaven 

Encircled  them  once  more; 
The  blessings  of  a  home  were  given, 

With  comfort,  as  before. 


Where  once  an  aged  forest  stood 

Now  waves  the  golden  Krain, 
And  smiling  farms,  where  grew  the  wood, 

Adorn  each  hill  and  plain. 
Perhaps  a  thriving  city  now 

Is  on  the  very  spot 
Where  first  his  camp  fire  spread  its  glow 

Around  his  leafy  cot. 
A  benefactor  to  his  race. 

To  hardships  well  inured. 
Fond  memory  will  oft  retrace 

The  trials  he  endured. 

A  lesson  good,  it  seems  to  me. 

Is  by  this  woodsman  taught. 
His  trip  into  the  forest  free, 

That's  with  adventure  Iraught; 

If,  in  life's  rough  and  thorny  way, 

We  set  our  course  aright. 
We'll  find  perhaps  some  future  day, 

A  home  that's  beaming  bright 


One  night,  as  the  rays  of 

The  liHiht  were  retiring. 
And  Nature  grown  weary, 

Was  hastening  to  rest; 
A  poor  widow  sat,  bowed  with 

Grief— sad  and  weeping — 
As  three  little  cherubs 

With  hunger  were  pressed. 

The  air,  O,  how  cold!  as 

The  wind  fiercely  whistled 
Iq  anger,  and  crept  through 

Each  seam  in  the  fioor: 
No  fuel!  and  the  bright  glowing 

Embers  were  dying. 
As  the  "woll"  lay  in  waiting 

To  spring— at  the  door. 

Next  morning,  a  friend  of 
The  friendless  and  needy — 

A  kindred  of  Charity- 
Thought  of  the  poor; 

And  cheered  the  sad  widow 
With  food,  and  with  fuel, 

And  gathered  a  blessing- 
Nor  missed  from  bis  store.

Those  ♦ho  lend  to  destitute  widows 
andorplianswlir reap  their  reward  with 
a  hundred. ft>ld,  Interest  in  the  "great 
hereafter.'!  i^      ..    ; 


'Twas  down  by  the  banks  of  a 

Musical  stream, 
Where  green  grasses  grov  and 

Trout  may  be  seen; 
Beneath  the  warm  sun  I 

Wandered  one  day, 
To  learn  what  this  rolicking 

Brook  had  to  say. 

It  said,  as  it  merrily 

Rippled  along, 
*'A  gem  of  the  forest,  my 

Heart  full  of  song. 
I'm  up  in  the  wild  woods, 

Down  on  the  shore. 
Leaping  and  bounding  with 

Glee  evermore. 

'Tis  here  that  sweet  maidens  and 

Swains  often  meet. 
And  gather  the  wild  flowers  that 

Grow  at  my  feet, 
And  whisper  of  joys  jet  in 

Store  as  they  roam, 
And  dream  of  the  bliss  that 

Surrounds  a  new  home. 

I  sometimes  inform  a  young 

Twain,  ere  they  go— 
Thatls,  ifthey  donot 

Already  know — 


Where  they  can  purchase  most 

All  things  one  needs, 
Of  course,  it  is  down  by  the 

Corner— at  Meads'." 


SW  Sa\  Wv\Wvxv    We 

She  sat  within  the  cabin, 

Beside  the  open  door, 
Her  graceful  form  reclining; 

Her  thoughts  began  to  soar 
In  soft,  melodious  cadence. 

As  o'er  the  waters  bright. 
The  enllant  ship  was  gliding 

Into  the  silent  night. 

A  vision  bright  came  o'er  ber — 

She  thought  that  it  was  day. 
And  every  thing  around  her 

Looked  curious  and  gay; 
Rich  specimens,  and  barkwork, 

And  slippers  worked  with  beads 
And  when  her  eyes  were  opened, 

She  found  'twas  in  at  Meads'. 


Onward,  e'er  onward!  nor  think  of  the 

past; 
The  present  is  here  it  cannot  long  last, 
Then  seize  it,   and  gather  jits  fruit  ere 

it  dies. 
The  future  may  then  bring  a  pleasant 

surprise.
